Whenever I attempt to watch live TV or a recorded program via Kodi, it crashes. Typically I'll see the first few frames of video before it freezes and then kodi quits entirely. Logs are attached.
My setup has Kodi and NextPVR running on the same Windows PC. I'm going to try running from my OSX laptop next.
I have this (Advanced) recurring schedule like: title like '%Christmas%' and genres like '%Movie / Drama%' and channel_oid in ( select oid from channel where name not like '% HD' )
I want to temporaly disable this (till next Christmas season ). The only option I now have is to delete it. But certainly for this advanced type like schedules I just want to disable it.
In the UK several Channels split Movies in to two parts with a 15 minute program in between (I think so the ice-cream lady can sell her wares)
In version 4 NPVR (without Kodi) if I wanted to keep the movie for a while, I just used to add the second part to the first with VideoRedo, delete the second part, and all was fine.
If I do the same in Kodi with v5 NPVR addon, the timeline stays the same length as the original first part, meaning that you can not skip once you pass the end of the timeline - the movie will play to the end no problem, but with no pausing or skipping.
Is the length stored in the NPVR db, or in Kodi somewhere, and which value requires modifying? I don't mind editing the db on the odd occasion when I want to keep a movie.
NextPVR Server will search for an available tuner device from the ...
Top of the list downwards to use for recording.
Bottom of the list upwards to use for Live TV.
I have found that when using a Hauppauge WinTV-dualHD, and recording with just the second available DVBT tuner in TV Scheduler Pro, that NextPVR complains that it cannot find an available tuner to play Live TV when the tuner order in NextPVR setup is first then second tuner i.e. the same as in TV Scheduler Pro.
Not a complaint, and hardly an issue worthy of anybody's time trying to fix as these are two completely different applications competing for the same tuner resources. I just note it as something others might run across.
I'm attempting to watch an in-progress recording via the web UI and am having a few problems.
First, every 5 minutes or so the playback just freezes. The UI indicates that the video is paused. When I click the play button, it resumes but backs up about 2.5 minutes. I can skip forward and things work fine for a few more minutes, until it happens again.
The second issue I see seemingly has to do with how playback is handled once it reaches the end of the scheduled program time (as compared to reaching the end of the _recording_ time). I'm watching an NFL game and I set it to record an extra 60 minutes because these games are known to go long. I was able to watch much of the game (minus the issues described above) but when playback reached the point where the guide says the game should be over, it just stops. The UI indicates that recording is still happening, but I just can't make any progress beyond the guide's scheduled end time.
I noticed today that only 3 recordings were pending, 2 movies and one of the NFL playoff games. Normally the pending list is very long. I modified my NFL recurring so the games are now scheduled. However, none of my regular series are scheduled. I have not idea what happened.
I am using a fresh install of Arch Linux with current version of nextpvr.
Came home from work only to discover that I can now only get local channels. After troubleshooting and digging into things, I discovered Cox made a change and the majority of the channels that I get from them are now labeled "DRM".
Before I pull the plug on Cox and switch to another service, I have to ask; Can NPVR do DRM? I'll be really unhappy if I have to drop NPVR and switch to a streaming service, but this is something that I may have to do.
